Connecticut high court nominee expresses regret for supporting Amy Coney Barrett.

Sandra Slack Glover, a nominee to Connecticut's highest court, expressed regret for signing a 2017 letter supporting Amy Coney Barrett for a federal appeals court position, citing Barrett's vote to overturn Roe v. Wade as a member of the U.S. Supreme Court. Glover, a federal prosecutor nominated by Democratic Gov. Ned Lamont, clarified that she was a firm supporter of abortion rights. The state legislature's Judiciary Committee held off voting on Glover's nomination, citing concerns about her support of Barrett. All current justices on the seven-member state Supreme Court were nominated by Democratic governors.
